Spider Harrison

Spider Harrison is an American national radio DJ and entertainer who first rose to prominence after replacing John R. on WLAC/Randy's, a 50-thousand-watt Class A clear channel station in Nashville, Tennessee.

Post College, Harrison worked several "fill in" air shifts on WCWP and created a show called An Introduction To Soul.

He soon interned at WWRL in Woodside Queens where he honed his radio production skills and filled in on Sundays, setting up gospel "remotes" for churches throughout Brooklyn and Harlem (New York).

Harrison's independent music label SPIDO RECORDS released his remake of the Jim Stafford novelty song "Spiders and Snakes".

During the seventies while on WLAC, Spider Harrison guested vocally on albums by R&B artists Millie Jackson, "Feelin Bitchy" and the late Joe Tex, with little success.

While Harrison was at WLAC-AM in Nashville, radio consultant Kent Burkhardt changed the Top 40 format promotional call letters to 15LAC.
